It could be easier or it could be the same, or even harder.  All my labors have been very different.  My second was by far the easiest, and quickest though.  Im on number 4 and I am still nervous, but praying for an easy labor like my second!  I think the epidural is up to you, how did your body handle it last time?  Im doing a natural labor again.

just like every pregnancy is different for every labor and delivery is also different. This is my third i am due September 1st. I am also scared. It's been 4.5 years since my last one. My first labor and delivery was very different than my second. As for the epidural (this is with my experience only) wait as long as possible to get it if you do decide to get it again
